Sshhh

It has been a quiet day at the home of the Gorse Fox.

We finally managed to connect with Cousteau-cub (who was still chuffed by the Cup Final result). She was suffering from a slight ear injection that was keeping her out of the water for a few days. Overall, all was well.

The Silver Vixen spent much of the day with her fabrics, cutters and cottons. GF, however, spent much of his day searching out several old sets of course notes, documents from previous engagements... and that power block for the old laptop.

He finally found the power block (which seems huge compared with those we see on modern laptops). Firing up the old machine he found that it still started but that there was no functioning operatying system on the hard-drive. (Also, looking at it he realizes that it had no Ethernet or Token Ring - nor (of course) any WiFi.

As for the notes and old papers - they are background for some course material that GF wants to develop in his spare time before starting his next engagement.
